H&M boy's mum accused of being a 'sell out'

Photos of five-year-old Liam Mango modelling a H&M 'coolest monkey in the jungle' hoodie went viral online. Many on social media accused H&M of racism, and there have been protests in some of their stores in South Africa. The company has apologised. When Liam's mother, Terry Mango, said she didn't see the hoodie as racist, many reacted angrily. She spoke to Nuala McGovern on 大象传媒 OS about the backlash she has faced.
